David Frum: Treating Friends Like Enemies

Thought Leader: David Frum
April 9, 2025


In the premiere episode of The David Frum Show, The Atlantic’s David Frum lays out his case for a new kind of political conversation—one that rejects the radicalized rhetoric dominating major podcasts.

He then details why Donald Trump’s tariffs wrecked world financial markets. David takes apart the excuses offered by tariff defenders, and tries to explain the shock and betrayal felt by America’s allies.

Then, David is joined by the former ambassador to Japan Rahm Emanuel. Emanuel shares the lessons he learned as White House chief of staff during the 2008–09 financial crises—and his assessment of how Democrats went wrong in 2024 and where they can advance from here.

David Frum brings clarity, candor, and seasoned political insight to today’s most pressing geopolitical challenges. As the host of The David Frum Show and a leading voice at The Atlantic, Frum is known for his thoughtful analysis and principled perspective—unafraid to challenge orthodoxy, whether on the left or the right.

As a keynote speaker, Frum delivers more than just commentary—he offers a roadmap for navigating complex political landscapes, encouraging audiences to think beyond partisan lines and focus on governance, leadership, and the future of democratic institutions. Frum’s speaking engagements are managed exclusively by WWSG. To host him for your event, contact us.
